Create a life of being and not doing, as humans are human beings and not human doings.
I just got the following wise words from a friend of mine and would like to share it:
I once bought my kids a set of batteries for Christmas with a note on it saying, toys not included. (Bernard Manning)
Reading this, I was amused at first, but then it got me thinking: that’s life. We are given the batteries but the toys are not included. We were born with God-given potential (the batteries) and it cannot be exhausted or used up. When we use our potential, we discover that the more you use it the more power you have. The amazing thing is that it can be developed when we live life. It’s there for everyone, but how, where and when you use it, is your choice. You have the batteries, now you have to choose the “toys” that you are going to use it in.
Make a decision now to tap into your God-given potential (your batteries) and start using and developing it by choosing your “toys” wisely. Choose to use your potential constructively, to build yourself up, to be significant, and to be the best you could be.
Make it a great week
